    Xuchang, Prime Minister¡¯s Mansion.

    Although he experienced a great defeat in Chibi, Cao Cao was not at all decadent after returning to Xuchang, and was still full of energy.

    Of the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, he owned nine states. Sun Quan, Liu Cong, Liu Zhang, including Xiliang Ma Teng, and Han Sui only occupied one state each. How could they compare with him?

    With the New Year approaching, Cao Cao held a meeting with civil and military ministers in the Prime Minister's Mansion. At this time, Liu Cong from Jingzhou sent an invitation and three jars of Wanli Incense.

    Of course, these are nominally given to the emperor, but in Xuchang, everything must first go through Prime Minister Cao Cao.

    The temptation of Wanli Xiangjiu is too great. Everyone has tasted it when they were in Red Cliff. It has been almost a month now. They are so greedy when they smell the taste, so they open a jar and drink it quickly.

    Everyone was not enjoying themselves, but there was too little wine. There were only three jars. One jar must be left for the emperor anyway. The other jar naturally belonged to the prime minister. Everyone was thinking about when they could drink one jar without restraint.  It's called enjoyable.

    "Everyone, Liu Cong's son is getting married on the sixteenth day of the first lunar month. How should we deal with it?" After drinking, Cao Cao got to the point.

    "My lord, Liu Cong is a despicable person who took advantage of others. We will ignore his wedding!" When Liu Cong was mentioned, Xu Chu was very angry.  They suffered a heavy defeat in Chibi and managed to escape from Huarong Road to Nanjun. However, this kid not only took advantage of the opportunity to seize Nanjun, but also pursued them all the way, driving them to Xiangyang. The meeting outside Xiangyang City was frantic again.  They were extremely proud and forced them to withdraw from Xiangyang.  Xu Chu regretted very much why he didn't strangle Liu Cong to death when he saw him for the first time!

    However, Xu Chu's words did not arouse the approval of others, because everyone knew that Xu Chu liked to be the first to express his opinions when discussing matters, but Cao Cao basically did not adopt his opinions. To put it bluntly, he was a brave and foolhardy person.  The people are Cao Cao's pure bodyguards. They can't even lead troops to fight, so don't tell them about their plans.

    "Yuanzhi, what do you think of your long stay in Jingzhou?" Cao Cao asked Xu Shu.

    "Liu Cong is the shepherd of Jingzhou and a minister of the Han Dynasty. The prime minister is the head of the hundred officials. Should he go or not? Of course, it is up to the prime minister himself to decide." Since Xu Shu entered Cao Cao's camp, he never took the initiative to speak or gave advice to Cao Cao.  .

    After hearing Xu Shu's words, Cao Cao looked a little gloomy.

    "My lord, my subordinates think that we should send someone to congratulate you with your majesty's gift." Cheng Yu saluted Cao Cao and said, "In the whole world, is it the king's land? Liu Cong is guarding Jingzhou on behalf of the emperor. If he is unreasonable,  You will be laughed at by everyone in the world."

    "My subordinate seconded the proposal!"

    "I second the proposal!"

    Xun Yu, Xun You, Jia Xu, Liu Ye, Dong He and other civil servants all seconded the proposal.

    "Okay, I will meet with the emperor tomorrow to explain this matter. Ziyu, Boning, and Kong Zhang, the three of you will make preparations and go to Jingzhou after the new year."

    "No!" Hua Xin, Man Chong, and Chen Lin responded at the same time.

    The next day, Cao Cao went to court and reported the matter to the emperor Liu Xie. Liu Xie naturally would not refuse. Yang Biao, Kong Rong and others also suggested that Liu Cong should succeed Liu Biao as the general of Zhennan and open the government during the holiday.  Although Cao Cao was dissatisfied, he thought it made no difference whether he gave the title or not, so he agreed.

    Yizhou, Chengdu Prefecture Mufu.

    In the main seat of the lobby, Yizhou Shepherd Liu Zhang was sitting at the top, and the civil and military ministers were kneeling on both sides.

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????OUT off Zhang Song, show off your power to General Fei Guan, as well as Wu Ban, Wu Yi and other generals.

    "Nephew Liu Congxian is really good. He took Jingzhou back from the Cao thief! Now that Cao Cao has been defeated and returned to the north, our Yizhou will also be stable." Liu Zhang was very relaxed during this period. Before the Battle of Chibi, he could do it every day  They are worried. If Jiangdong is defeated, Yizhou may have only one way to surrender. "On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Liu Congxian's nephew is getting married. Who wants to go to Jingzhou to congratulate him?"

    "My lord, my subordinates are willing to go!" Zhang Song came out of the queue and saluted Liu Zhang.

    "I wish to go there forever, that's great, it won't be too late, we'll set off after the new year!"

    "No!"

    "One more thing. Let's discuss it again. Bin Bo is now General Yangwei. Is there a suitable candidate for the post of Chengdu Commander?" The former Chengdu Commander was Fei Guan. Now Fei Guan has been promoted to General Yangwei and concurrently serves as Chengdu Colonel.  .

    Although the Chengdu Order is only a county magistrate, its importance is comparable to that of the prefect of any county.

    "My lord, I recommend someone who can do the job." Zhang Song continued.

    "who?"

    "Meng Da Meng Zijing!"

    "Meng Da?" Liu Zhang hesitated. Meng Da was not a native of Yizhou.??

    "My lord, what Zhang Biejia said makes sense, and Meng Da can do the job." Wang Lei also agreed.

    "I second the proposal!" Fei Guan knew Meng Da's ability.

    "I second the proposal!"

    "Okay, then let's make Mengda the Order of Chengdu and take office immediately."

    After Zhang Song returned to the mansion, Fazheng and Meng Da were waiting for him in the study.

    Fa Zheng was a native of Fufeng County and the grandson of Fazhen, a famous scholar.  Ten years ago, due to famine in Guanzhong, Fa Zheng and his friend Meng Da came to Yizhou to attach themselves to Liu Zhang.

    Mengda was also a native of Fufeng County. His given name was Zijing. In previous history, after he surrendered to Liu Bei, he changed his name to Zidu. Because Liu Bei's father was named Liu Zijing, Mengda wanted to avoid taboos.

    Liu Zhang was not good at recognizing people, let alone employing them. It was only now that Fa Zheng became the county magistrate of Xindu, while Meng Da was just a county captain before today.

    However, these two people have a close friendship with Zhang Song, and Zhang Song also knows their talents deeply. Zhang Song once said that Meng Zijing is comparable to Zhang Wenyuan, and Fa Xiaozhi is comparable to Guo Fengxiao.  He recommended Liu Zhang many times, but still was not reused.

    "Zijing, I have informed the lord, and the lord now makes you the Order of Chengdu!"

    "Thank you, Brother Yongnian."

    "With Zijing's talent, this is just a county magistrate, alas!" Seeing that the two friends had no talent, Zhang Song could only shake his head and sigh.

    "Brother Yongnian, what do you think of the future of Yizhou?" Fazheng asked.

    "The country of Yizhou and Tianfu, coupled with the difficulty of the Shu Road, the danger of the Jiangge, and the convenience of the Yangtze River, in today's troubled times, it is the place where heroes can use their skills. As long as we diligently cultivate internal affairs and train our soldiers, when the world changes and the army moves down the river,  He will definitely be able to compete in the world and achieve hegemony, but it is a pity that my lord has no enterprising spirit and just wants to stick to this state!"

    "But if we want to defend it, how can we defend it? Cao Cao, Sun Quan, Zhang Lu, and the now emerging Liu Cong, which one of them will let Yizhou go?"

    "In view of filial piety and uprightness"

    "Brother Yongnian, we should have made plans in advance. If we wait until the army comes to the city, it will be too late."

    "I will go to Jingzhou in the near future on the order of my lord to attend the wedding of Liu Cong, the shepherd of Jingzhou. At that time, Cao Cao and Sun Quan will definitely send people to come. I will take this opportunity to make friends with them, and then go to see all the princes. When I come back  How about we make some plans?"

    "Okay, let's wait for the news about Brother Yongnian." After hearing Zhang Song's words, Meng Da suddenly became energetic.

    "However, this matter must be kept confidential and must not be discussed outside!"

    "Of course, heaven knows and earth knows, you know and I know!" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
